MEMORANDUM FOR; THE RECORD

SUBJECT

; Continuation of MKULTRA, Subproject 66

1, The purpose of project MKULTRA, Subproject No. 66 is to
support the research program on the determinants of alcohol indi-

cation undertaken

S*and associates. The program will continue for

one year starting 16 September 1958 through 16 September 1959.

2. The scope of the project will include:

(a) Continuation of double-blind experimental studies

of drug effects, employing various "alcohol placebos"
and chemical extender b developed by TSS/ CD;

(b) Comparing alcohol effects on a small sample of sub-
jects on whom repeated observations can be made
during periods of naturally induced stress, mood de-
pression and fatigue;

(c) Observation and prediction of the behavioral changes
accompanying alcohol consumed in such "natural" social
settings as bars and clubs.

(d) Special advisory services and consultations bwSppSPHi
(formerly reimbursed under MKULTRA, Subproject No.
63, which has been discontinued).

3. The project will continue to be financed through

f he^gggfpNkcts in the capacity
of a cover organization. The cost of the program for this year will be

PROPOSAL - ALCOHOL STUDY - 1958 '59

Introdu ction

After Igr years of experimental work with alcohol consumed in
a setting of social drinking we find that we are far less acquainted
with the nature and conditions of alcohol reactions than ve have <becn
with L.S.D. reactions, There/Yould he a number of reasons for this.

One is that the

| blind study of alcohol

with L.3.D. was a pilot study and that this past year was an experi-
mental study, and we haven’t spent enough time with' alcohol to sort
out the determining factors. The other possibility is that alcohol
Is less specific in its action, more dependent on the immediate
emotional mood and recent set of the subject as well as the situational
tone and setting. As of the moment we tend to favor the latter in-
terpretation. Nevertheless both suppositions lead to a somewhat differ-
ent approach or emphasis in the future study of alcohol than we used with
L.S.D. Three approaches are proposed .

Part I.; Con ti nuation of double-blind "laboratory" studies in our

specifically designed observation ro om.

The first approach proposed is to take maximum advantage of

opportunities to observe interaction effects of alcohol and specific

emotional moods and sets. During the past year we have emphasized
DaMcrnded to:
l>'/ n^jfcorlty of
datoj' l|||^in77 I

p

!■:■■> IMPOST;

broad personality and situational determinants by interviewing and
testing selected subjects and then observing and predicting behavior
while drinking and socializing in a series of cocktail parties conducted
1 in our specifically designed barroom'i A certain degree of predictability

j was achieved considering just these variables, but one of the main f ind-

i

ings was that the mood and current set of the subjects - up to now an

| essentially uncontrolled variable - has as much or more to do with alcohol

effects as the more general personality characteristics and situational

setting vhich ve did control. 0>ar first proposal, therefore, is to

; continue the cocktail party experiments with a group of the same subjects

' observed last year, but scheduling the experimental sessions at times

'

when the subjects are naturally and spontaneously experiencing unusual
stress, identifiable mood changes, and/or a special need to drink (dr
not to drink). The subjects would be staff members available for spur
of the moment sessions. In addition to observing these persons under

i . !

the special circumstance s in which effects of alcohol can be expected
to vary maximally, careful case histories would be worked up for each
subject, detailing cultural and family conditioning to alcohol and
current attitudes toward its use. Emphasis would be on such things as
the religious, the food and refreshment, the drug, the recreational,
the therapeutic, and the self-defeating implications of the use of alcohol
by individuals .

Results of our prediction efforts for the past year’s work, while
disappointing on the face, nevertheless suggest these and other areas in

nov.]\^'- cd lo:

by

eat oi J^j|o 1977

t2~lh ! .F3i-^CL BY

which prediction can he sharpened. In other words, by continuing and

repeating the "laboratory" experiments including the new data described

above , it may be possible for us to specify the absolute minimum infor-
mation required in addit ion to the basic personality variables indicated
■£,y ory to achieve significant predictability . t

Part 2. Observ ati on and prediction in natural drinking situations^

Anticipating that a more careful consideration of mood, current-
attitudes, and set for drinking will yield higher predictability of
effects, we believe we will be ready to move our observation and pre-
diction efforts into truly natural settings. The notion here is that

several of the experimenters would frequent a bar often enough to be
able to describe the general attitudes of the place, its cultural status,
and the reactions over time and on repeated occasions of a selected sample
of regular habituees who regard the bar as a kind of local "club". The
procedure would be to observe the mood, behavior, condition, and apparent
intent of the target individual during the first half-hour after his arrival,
and then to predict changes in raood, behavior, or intent during, say, the
third or fourth half -hour. After several repeated observations and pre-
diction efforts on a given individual, an effort would be made to approach
the individual, gain rapport, and enlist his cooperation in obtaining the
same kind of detailed case history as obtained in Part 1 above. This

part of the study would thus function as a kind of cross-vo.lida.tion, for
.the hypotheses which would be investigated with greater precision but with

less face validity in Part I of the study. -

Par t III .. Study of Alcohol as an Institution .

We see a need to bring together the results of the proposed
research and much of what is already accomplished into some overall 1
frame of reference. It is our notion that alcohol can he looked upon
as a social institution and should he studied in the same manner as
the sociologist studies, religion for example i.__The institution should
he investigated in all its aspects - in terms of production , d istribution ,
propaganda concerned with alcohol, the cultural sanctions and prohibitions

,S\-

relative to its use, and those variations* imbedded in specific groups
within our culture . For some groups of people one could conceive of
alcohol as a religion, another as a drug, another as a lubricant or
adjunct to sociability, and another as an excuse for sociability -- these
latter being the everyday therapeutics of alcohol.

Part III is an important pre-condition, we believe, to producing
a useful, meaningful, and reliable protocol for observing and predicting
overt changes in behavior under a specific set of circumstances . V?c
understand that such a protocol, applicable to a wide variety of investi-

gations, is one of the major interests of the sponsoring
is one of the ultimate goals of this project.

PROSPECTUS

Prediction Studies:

In our three years of research with LSD-25 this research
group hah been concerned with describing the effects of LSD-25,
accounting for the rather wide individual differences observed,
and identifying the determinants of the drug effects. Sufficient
progress has been made to give promise to the development of
methods for predicting the reaction to LSD-25 of a given individual
in a given social situation. If, upon further analysis of our data,
our tentative prediction method proves reliable, it may be generalized

i

to predicting reactions to (a)’ other drugs and (b) other specific
environmental events or agents. Our particular interest is in
refining and generalizing the method to predict an individual's
reaction to specified social situations in his environment.

Our immediate objectives for the initial pnases of this
study will be:

(a) To systematically determine the extent to which

the observations made prior to administration of LSD
to approximately 100 subjects studied in the past
• can be employed to predict the individual's re-
action to LSD-25.

( 2 )

(b) To determine what additional observations would be
required to make reliable predictions. That is, to
determine what data is essential and what data is
redundant.

(c) To determine the extent that these observations can
be employed to predict reactions to situations other
than the administration of LSD-25. Such "other
situations" might include: reaction to alcohol,
especially where consumed in a "social drinking"
situation; rehabilitation of hospitalized patients;
reaction to various situations of "natural" social
stress.
